Want a PM Promotion? Start With These Steps
If you want to become a project manager, I’d start by shadowing the project managers at your company. Ask about their day to day. You’re making them your mentor, they just don’t know it yet.

Engineering students, listen up 👇 When I think about what companies test in interviews, it’s not just whether you can run the software. It’s whether you can explain the calculations happening inside it. Save this before your next interview.

Oil and gas professionals: when did you last put yourself out there the way you did in college? Iron Lady Career Cohort is open for applications.
👉 https://ironladyenergy.com/cohort

As students, we went to SPE meetings, AADE events and every career fair on campus. Then the job came along and the networking stopped. Years later, a lot of capable engineers are stuck at the same level and don’t know where to start again.

The Iron Lady Career Cohort is that restart, built for people with 5–15 years in the industry:
🔹 Week by week, live with Yoshi Pradhan, P.E., MBA
🔹 Benchmark your pay, then reposition your résumé and LinkedIn
🔹 A clear system for getting in front of hiring managers
🔹 Interview practice and negotiation scripts for senior roles
🔹 A 90-day plan with an accountability partner

There are only 20 seats per cohort.
✍️ Takes 4 minutes to apply, with a short fit call before any payment:

Just because something worked for me in school didn’t mean it would work in the workforce. Mid-career, I learned that personal effort isn’t enough. You have to be influential, lead through others, and work through your team. That’s how you grow from contributor to leader.
